The Blue Ridge Brutal is not for the faint hearted. All of the Rides – 100, 70, 50 or 25 miles, take you through the Blue Ridge mountains and over many hills. As such, all these Rides can be considered challenging to strenuous. Registration for the Blue Ridge Brutal will open March 1st 2023. However, you can mix the pain with the joy of riding through some of the most beautiful scenery in North Carolina which, we believe, makes these Rides some of the most spectacular in this area.
